Seriously though, whose bright idea was that, and why was it allowed to continue for so long?

    Daily show was a daily watch the entire run with John Stewart. It was comedic, it was newsworthy, it was silly and engaging yet informative. Brilliant.

    Trevor Noah sucked. I like his standup. I liked some of his jokes. But he was way too soft on most things and just not funny. I watched for a few weeks after the transition and turned it off. Came back a few times for an episode here and there to see if he’d gotten better, and left when he hadn’t.

    The rotating host thing was also annoying. Almost all of them were terrible with a few episodes total that sparked joy. Not enough to watch again.

    I tuned into the new 2024 John Stewart and it was the same John Stewart in the exact way it should be. I literally LOLd and was engaged. His news was not newsworthy and it was a soft ball night. Obviously getting back into the groove and I’m excited to see what happens. I will be tuning in purposefully.

    I hope Comedy Central doesn’t ruin the golden goose that just landed back in their laps. Let Stewart remain on air as much and as often as he likes until he needs to be wheeled in on a health machine.
